Previous methods may be easily affected by irrelevant backgrounds and usually ignore the modality gaps. To address above issues, we propose a novel learning framework named EDITOR to sElect DIverse Tokens for multi-modal Object ReID. EDITOR prioritizes the selection of object-centric information, aiming to preserve the diverse features of different modalities while minimizing background interference. Our proposed EDITOR achieves competitive performance on three multi-modal object ReID benchmarks, i.e., RGBNT201, RGBNT100 and MSVR310.
Exciting news! Our paper has been accepted by the CVPR 2024! 🎉
Multi-modal object ReID is crucial in scenarios where objects are captured through different image spectra, such as RGB, near-infrared, and thermal imaging. Previous multi-modal ReID methods typically adhere to the approach of extracting global features from all regions of images in different modalities and subsequently aggregating them. Nevertheless, these methods present two key limitations: (1) Within individual modalities, backgrounds introduce additional noise, especially in challenging visual environments. (2) Across different modalities, backgrounds introduce overhead in reducing modality gaps, which may amplify the difficulty in aggregating features. Hence, our method prioritizes the selection of object-centric information, aiming to preserve the diverse features of different modalities while minimizing background interference.
- We introduce EDITOR, a novel learning framework for multi-modal object ReID. To our best knowledge, EDITOR represents the first attempt to enhance multi-modal object ReID through object-centric token selection.
- We propose a Spatial-Frequency Token Selection (SFTS) module and a Hierarchical Masked Aggregation (HMA) module. These modules effectively facilitate the selection and aggregation of multi-modal tokenized features.
- We propose two new loss functions with a Background Consistency Constraint (BCC) and an Object-Centric Feature Refinement (OCFR) to improve the feature discrimination with background suppressions.
- Extensive experiments are performed on three multi-modal object ReID benchmarks. The results fully validate the effectiveness of our proposed methods.

Please ensure that your batch size matches the one specified in the configuration file. Typically, using a batch size of 128 and a number of instances of 16 is more robust compared to using a batch size of 64/32 and a number of instances of 8. However, it's important to note that a batch size of 128 consumes over 24GB of GPU memory. In future work, we will pay attention to GPU memory consumption to provide convenient reproducible configurations for more researchers! Thank you for your attention!
